Subway bomb charge Joseph Rodriguez, the former police officer changed with setting off a firebomb in a stairwell of the Times Sq. subway station on July 19, was being held on Mon. Aug. 9, in Bellevue Hospital for psychiatric review under a court order.

Rodriguez, 27, of 280 Mulberry St., was about to be released from the N.Y.P.D. with a psychological disability pension and was serving on modified assignment in the Times Sq. police station during the incident, according to the charges on file in the office of Manhattan District Attorney Robert M. Morgenthau.

He phoned the station about a smoking bag in a stairwell, then waved passengers off and ran as the bag exploded shortly after 8 p.m., according to the charge. He was injured in the left eye and leg. During the investigation that uncovered several firearm permits registered in other names in his Mulberry St. apartment, Rodriquez signed himself into Presbyterian Hospital for observation. He was charged last week and sent to Bellevue. He is due to appear in court Aug. 31 on first-degree arson, second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment.

Steinberg moves Joel Steinberg, a resident of a Fortune Society halfway house in Hamilton Heights after his release from prison after serving a manslaughter prison term for killing his 6-year-old adopted daughter, Lisa, in the Village in 1987, was compelled to leave last week and is living at an undisclosed location.

Steinberg, 63, on parole until 2012, had been living in the Fortune Society residence for five weeks. But statements he made in a New York magazine article last week that he was a good father and never really hurt the child angered administrators of the halfway house who ordered him to leave, according to a New York Post article.

Under terms of parole, Steinberg is supposed to live in a halfway house for up to eight months.
